Spin Wild! Jonathan turns herds of "Moosie™" spindles throughout the year. These include a custom shaft, and are made with the highest attention to detail.

What can I say about my Moosie™? It is divine, wonderful, beautiful, and I am spinning up a storm.It's perfectly balanced, so pretty to look at. — Becky P

Our Moosies™ feature a 1.5-2" whorl, set on a 9" hand-turned hardwood shaft. Weights vary by size and density, averaging 26-39 g / .91-1.39 oz. Details about each herd are provided after they are turned, polished and finished with shaft and hook.

Our Moosie™ spindles are made from dropped antlers. No moose was injured to make these spindles.

To see a variety of Moosies™ as well as beautiful wooden spindles, visit the Bosworth Spindle Group on Flickr.

Current Moosies™ are $170 plus Priority Mail/Tracking (USPS 1st Class International for long-distance Moosies™). Still finishing earlier special requests; LLL group pinged.

Moosie Spindle (including shaft)

It seems so mysterious and magical to me —like Michaelangelo releasing the angel from the stone. Little do the moose know that long after they're gone from this earth, a part of them will still be here to be productive, cherished, appreciated.
